Chapter 583: A mediocre person can only make trouble
Zhang Lang is a very enthusiastic person, and while chatting with Chen Qi, he can be seen saying hello to others from time to time.
It seems like he has a lot of friends?
In fact, Zhang Lang has loved practicing martial arts since he was a child, but due to his poor martial arts talent, he went to several martial arts schools in the past, but was eventually rejected.
Therefore, he found another way to make friends with people who practiced martial arts.
In his words, even if he is not talented in martial arts, he might be able to go a long way in martial arts if he makes more friends in martial arts?
Like what he just said, the big brother of [Tiandi Martial Arts School] was actually someone he met privately.
When the other party first came to Dongyuan, he was penniless, so Zhang Lang helped him once.
Then the other party was recruited into the [Heaven and Earth Martial Arts Hall], and now he is an inner disciple, who can help him in turn.
This perfectly reflects the benefit of his wide circle of friends.
And it was for this reason that he took the initiative to find Chen Qi just now.
However, now he realized that Chen Qi, with his thin skin, tender flesh, and gentle manner, was not a martial artist at all.
But he regarded Chen Qi as his kind, so he offered to help Chen Qi, which was considered an investment.
Chen Qi and Zhang Lang chatted for a while, and suddenly saw a man in martial arts uniform walking out of the [Tiandi Martial Arts Hall].
The man looked around for a while, then called out Zhang Lang's name.
"Zhang Lang!"
When Zhang Lang saw the person coming, he was immediately overjoyed and ran forward excitedly, "Brother!"
Du Jiang nodded, "I'll take you in and be smart later."
"Brother, wait."
"What's wrong?"
Zhang Lang pointed to Chen Qi behind him and said, "Brother, my two friends are also here to participate in the disciple selection. Do you think you can bring them in together?"
Du Jiang frowned, and then whispered, "Say Zhang Lang, I took you to participate in the selection. I took you through the back door. Now you ask me to bring two outsiders in. Are you afraid that I won't be punished?
?”
"Oh, it's okay to bring one, and it's okay to bring two more. It doesn't hurt.
After everything is done, shall I treat you to a drink, brother?"
Du Jiang pursed his lips, "If it weren't for the fact that you helped me in the first place, I really wouldn't want to take this job."
"Let's make an agreement first. I'm only responsible for taking you in. Whether you can be selected or not depends on you."
Zhang Lang nodded, "Brother, you can rest assured about this!"
Du Jiang shook his head helplessly, "Come with me."
Then, under the guidance of Du Jiang, Chen Qi and the others directly crossed the waiting queue in front and walked into the [Tiandi Martial Arts Hall].
On the way forward, Du Jiang said several times, "I will take you to a martial arts master later. He will test your martial arts foundation. If you pass his test, you will become the [Heaven and Earth Martial Arts School]."
An outer disciple of."
"Of course, you don't have to worry too much. The master is quite nice. I've said hello to him in advance and he won't be too harsh on you."
Zhang Lang was very grateful for this.
But Chen Qi suddenly asked, "I heard that some guests have come to your martial arts gym recently?
It seems to be called the Moon Gate?"
"It's [Half Moon Gate]!"
Du Jiang replied.
"The owner of our [Heaven and Earth Martial Arts School] turned out to be a true disciple of [Ban Yue Clan]. He opened a martial arts gym in [Dongyuan] on the orders of his master sect in order to carry forward the martial arts secrets of [Ban Yue Clan].
!”
"Most of the martial arts we learn now are also from [Half Moon Sect]."
Du Jiang glanced at Chen Qi, feeling a little unhappy, "You should avoid asking questions like this in the future, otherwise if others in the martial arts school listen to it, you will inevitably be severely scolded!"
Chen Qi smiled calmly, "Thanks for the reminder."
After a short while, Du Jiang brought Chen Qi and others to an indoor martial arts field in the martial arts hall.
Here, many people who came to participate in the selection can be seen taking the test.
Du Jiang found one of them, an old man wearing a white military robe and a lazy manner, who was taking a nap.
Du Jiang stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Master Kong, Master Kong?"
The old man opened his sleepy eyes, "Oh, it's Du Jiang, what's wrong?"
Du Jiang chuckled and said, "Didn't I tell you yesterday that I would bring someone for you to test today?
Now I've brought people here."
The old man's eyes fell behind Du Jiang and Chen Qi and the others.
"Huh?
Didn’t you say there was only one person?”
"Temporary changes."
As he said that, Du Jiang stepped forward and stuffed something into the old man's hand.
The old man raised his eyebrows, coughed twice, and said righteously, "First of all, if you want to become a disciple of our [Tiandi Martial Arts Hall], although the conditions are not very demanding, you still need to have general basic skills.
I will not do anything for personal gain or malpractice because of our relationship."
"That's natural."
Du Jiang expressed his understanding.
The old man nodded, "Let me introduce myself first. I, Kong Xi, am one of the coaches of this [Heaven and Earth Martial Arts School]. You can just call me Master Kong..."
Then, the old man briefly introduced some testing rules.
"Next I will test your martial arts foundation. Which of you will come first?"
"Me me me!"
Zhang Lang waved excitedly.
Kong Xi nodded slightly, "Okay, you come first.
Show me your best set of boxing skills."
Zhang Lang nodded in agreement, then started punching with a groan.
It has to be said that Zhang Lang still has some foundation in kung fu. His movements may seem a little unsmooth due to his nervousness, but after one set, he can barely catch the eye.
But for some people who have practiced martial arts for many years, Zhang Lang's little kung fu is just like a child playing with mud, which is not enough.
In response, Kong Xi shook his head slightly, as if he was not very satisfied.
After finishing the boxing, Zhang Lang was panting and clasped his fists at Kong Xi, "Master Kong, I'm done!"
Kong Xi sighed, "Your name is Zhang Lang, right?"
"To be honest, with your current level, it is still a bit difficult to enter our [Tiandi Martial Arts Hall]."
When Zhang Lang heard this, a hint of disappointment suddenly appeared on his face.
Sure enough, it was still the case. Before this, he had been to several martial arts gyms and got the same answer.
"Master Kong, I know that my martial arts talent is not good, but I will work hard. It takes ten times as much time as others, and I will practice the moves that others can learn hundreds or thousands of times.
Until you learn!"
Zhang Lang spoke firmly, with fire in his eyes.
It can be seen that the boxing technique he just performed must have been practiced for a long time.
Perhaps behind the scenes, Zhang Lang worked several times harder than ordinary people just to share his love for martial arts!
Kong Xi sighed, "It's good to have this determination, but when it comes to martial arts, determination alone doesn't make everything go smoothly.
I’m not belittling you, but no matter how much effort you put in, with your talent, it’s too difficult to make a difference in martial arts!”
"I advise you to give up."
Hearing this, Du Jiang persuaded, "Master Kong, Zhang Lang really likes to practice martial arts. How about you bring him into our [Tiandi Martial Arts School] first and teach him for a while before making a decision?"
Kong Xi shook his head, "Du Jiang, I heard you introduced me to an apprentice before. I didn't have high hopes, but I didn't expect him to be so bad.
You should also know that [Tiandi Martial Arts Hall] is one of the few great martial arts schools in [Dongyuan] and does not accept mediocre people.
There is really nothing I can do about this matter."
Du Jiang wanted to say something else, but he still swallowed the words that reached his mouth.
However, a sudden voice sounded.
"Well... I think Zhang Lang is a talented person."
